Solve the Challenges of the Healthcare Systems with Engineering Acumen

As the health care industry continues to evolve, health care systems engineering has
emerged as a discipline that presents unique opportunities to traditional systems
engineers. When you pursue a Healthcare Specialization as part of your M.S. in Systems
Engineering at University of Houston-Clear Lake, your solid technical foundation will
be augmented with knowledge that will help you improve the operations of any health
care facility.

Specialized Coursework for a Specialized Field

The Healthcare Systems Engineering course provides detailed insight into the health
care delivery system including patient flow, health data informatics, patient safety
and the health care supply chain. In the Healthcare Systems Analytics and Optimization course, your core systems engineering skills will help you solve
problems in scheduling, optimization and decision analysis. And after completing the
Healthcare Systems Integration course, you’ll be equipped to design and implement
processes for key healthcare systems like communications, sensing and automation,
security and robotics.
